Buddhist Temple Stay

  Thailand
  • All Other Areas in Thailand: 
    • Ubon Ratchatani

Term: Throughout the year 

Description: The day starts at 3am, with chanting, meditation, and other rituals. At dawn, you will embark on the alms rounds in the village. Following the rounds, there may be teaching, work, meetings, speeches, discussions, private consultations with the abbot, and free time for study, meditation, or other pursuits. Activities vary from day to day, and season to season. The temple residents eat just once a day at 8:00 a.m. They eat what has been given to the monks in the morning alms round, or what local people have cooked in the temple kitchen. Sometimes the lay followers (i.e. interns) will be asked to help in the kitchen. If you are interested in being ordained as a monk, please be advised that this would require observing the above routine for at least one year. Women cannot be ordained as nuns here; they are referred to a partner temple in Great Britain.
